- W200806694 abstract "Abstract : The purpose of this monograph is to identify the skills and capabilities required by commanders to excel at the operational level of war and in the practice of operational art. The author evaluated the performance of Confederate Major General Daniel Harvey Hill in his role as a department commander during the American Civil War. Department commanders were responsible for sequencing tactical operations to support the accomplishment of their government's strategic objectives, but they received little guidance on how to fulfill their missions. Twenty-first century American military officers in similar command positions also must be able to make decisions given ambiguous guidance and a fluid operational environment. They must be creative and active in developing innovative techniques to better understand the operational environment, and they must be able to craft holistic campaign plans that go beyond offensive and defensive operations. An examination of Hill's tenure as commander of the Confederate Department of North Carolina from February to July 1863 shows that he was uncomfortable translating discretionary orders into action, he was unable to adequately visualize his operational environment, and he did not construct a coherent campaign plan to accomplish disparate missions and support Confederate strategic aims. Some of Hill's struggles were due to the inability of the Confederate high command to articulate strategic priorities, the actions of Union forces, and the lack of experience in higher level commands. Previous tactical-level experiences in the war made Hill more cautious about committing forces when he was presented with ambiguous situations, and he did not grasp his responsibility to provide recommendations to strategic-level decision makers regarding force disposition and types of combat operations. Today's senior officers must embrace operational-level responsibilities, ask pertinent questions, and be able and willing to act given vague guidance." @default.
